Them Girlies

Sarah Palin and Michele Bachman have given women in politics a terrible name, lending credence to "air head" theories sometimes perpetuated by men in similar positions.

Being a woman, I'm likely to support a female candidate if she makes sense on issues and doesn't seem to be primarily driven by self-advancement (and little else).

Palin and Bachmann are both major embarrassments, frankly.

I can only think of three female candidates I could in all conscience vote for if they ran for the highest office after President Obama's second term: Hillary Clinton, Claire McCaskill and Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

  1. I could vote for Kathleen Sebelius. Though these ladies are conservative and I would not vote for them, I have respect for Christina Whitman and Olympia Snowe.
